The Game Notes: Two of the competition’s in-form sides meet at the Parc des Princes, and both have been scoring freely all season. Barcelona have been near-unstoppable in La Liga, while PSG have been dangerous going forward but have struggled to keep clean sheets lately. With neither defence at full strength, goals at both ends look likely, and Barça can just edge it.

Correct result - 2 points
The Game Notes: Liverpool haven’t been at their most fluent this season, but they’ve been solid at the back and have made a strong start in Europe. Villarreal’s form has been inconsistent, and they’ve tended to leak goals on their travels. Anfield on a European night should give the Reds the edge in a controlled home win.
Man Cityv
AEK AthensPredicted

Correct result - 2 points
The Game Notes: City have been relentless domestically and look one of the most complete sides around at the moment. AEK have been strong in Greece, but European away trips have rarely gone their way, and the Etihad is about as tough as it gets. City should have far too much here, without needing to fear much response.

The Game Notes: Como have built on last season’s progress and are a tough side to face at the Sinigaglia. United are still searching for consistency, with results on the road a particular problem and a stretched squad not helping. The Italians look well placed to make home advantage count in a close one.

The Game Notes: Arsenal have been one of the meanest defensive sides in Europe this season, but there are few tougher places to go than the Allianz Arena. Bayern have been unbeaten domestically and are formidable at home, even with a few key absences in attack. It should be a tight, high-quality game, with the hosts just shading it.
Aston Villav
VikingPredicted

Exact score - 5 points
The Game Notes: Villa have looked right at home in the Champions League and have tightened up nicely at the back in recent weeks. Viking have enjoyed a strong domestic campaign and won’t be overawed, but they’ve found defending at this level difficult. Villa Park should see a comfortable home win, with the Norwegians grabbing one of their own.
